Feral Confessions - Adrianna And The Alpha

Chapter 317 - Third Stage Of The Competition (22)

When Adrianna entered through the next portal, she found herself surrounded on a mountainous terrain all covered in snow. Everywhere she looked, there were peaks of tall mountains all covered in layers of snow. She used her wand to dry herself and quickly wear something warm in order to trap heat around her body. She looked around to see if Lile was anywhere, but she wasn't. 

When Adrianna realized that Zephyr was in Lile's cell, she had to get him out of her cell. She didn't know how but the plan to get him out of her cell came to her naturally. With him gone, it would be easy to tackle her. She was happy that Zephyr couldn't really do anything against her in the maze too. 

She walked forward in the snow. It was very difficult to walk over there but she decided to walk up the mountain rather than going down. It had been two days since they were in the competition. She missed home, she missed the werewolf realm, she missed Dmitri and she missed Ed. When this would all get over, she would go back to the werewolf realm and go on a small vacation with Dmitri – to his hideout, where no one would find them. He had said he had many hideouts in the forest. 

She kept walking for an hour but there was nothing where she could take shelter. The sun was going down the horizon and in the mountains it went down faster. She needed to look for a shelter or cave soon. She continued her journey forward. Suddenly she saw a small brownish outcrop in the mountain a few meters away from her. She was so tired but when she saw that, she went towards it excitedly. Perhaps it was a small opening where she would stay and spend the night. 

She lit her wand as a torch and as she neared it, she saw that the opening was not that small. She entered it and was surprised to find that it was a cave. The rocky outcrop was guarding the entrance, which was jagged and uneven. If it had been night, she could have easily missed the entrance.

She smiled at her luck and stepped in. It was a dark cave and she walked on the small, loose stones that had littered the floor. She had to support her hand on the damp wall of the cave. In the light that broke the darkness around her, she could see stalactites, white in color hanging on the ceiling much above her. She kept walking inside to find a place to sleep. Ahead she could hear the sound of water dripping somewhere. When she went to find the source, she saw a small pool in the cave. It was surrounded in blackness and there no way she could tell how deep the pool would be so she kept away from it. Just across the pool there was another rock that was jutting out and that seemed to be the best place to sleep. Adrianna went there. She noticed that it was very plain and smooth ground and she opened her fur coat to lay it out there. She took a deep breath, and lied over there. She was so tired that she slept immediately. 

Adrianna didn't know how long she had slept, when she heard a strange noise. It was as if the ground beneath her shook. She opened her eyes and got up immediately wondering whether it was an earthquake. Looking around the place, she noticed someone across the pool. She focused through her sleepy eyes. It was Lile standing with her wand pointed towards her. Lile threw another mild lighting bolt near her, which made her jump.

"Are you mad?" shouted Adrianna. "If you do that the cave will get destroyed!" 

"Or you may get buried under the debris," she shouted with a murderous glint in her eyes. 

Adrianna jumped from her place as Lile sent another bolt her way. The rocky outcrop that was above her, shattered into pieces and fell on the floor. "How did she find her?" Adrianna wondered while she took her wand out. This time she dodged the bolt Lile sent her way across the pool. She had to get Lile out of the cave before due to her foolishness they both get buried inside the cave. Adrianna cast the spell to stupefy her but she deflected it. 

Suddenly there was a huge rumble from somewhere inside the cave. Both of them stopped for a moment and looked deeper inside the cave trying to see through the darkness but they couldn't make out anything. 

Lile took advantage and once again she sent the bolt right next to Adrianna's feet, which Adrianna deflected midway in the air over the pool. As the bolt fell in the water, a large amount splashed and spilled all around, making them both wet. The water was so chilly that for a moment for of them became still because their bodies and minds became numb.

Before they could come to their senses, there was another rumble and the ground shook. They both looked back in the direction of the sound. "Run out!" shouted Adrianna thinking that there must be a beast inside that they had awakened. In the next moment Lile turned back and started running for her safety as Adrianna also followed her. As soon as they neared the cave entrance, they heard a roar. Mountain lion! They ran out as fast as possible but before they could even get out, a loud, almost deafening roar was heard right behind them.  

Both of them looked back. "Yeti!" shouted Lile. It seemed they had awakened a Yeti from its hibernation. That cave was its place of dwelling. 

They looked at each other and then again at the twenty feet tall Yeti who was looking at them as though it was looking at its prey. As soon as he took his first step forward, the two of them dashed out of the entrance. The Yeti followed them.

But what Adrianna faced next was beyond shock!
